$35.00The Gaza Catastrophe – the genocide in world-historical perspective – by Gilbert Achcar, is a searing indictment of the forces that led to the genocidal war on Gaza. Achcar argues the new catastrophe befalling the Palestinian people is the continuation of decades long course in which Israeli politics, policies and military strategy have inexorably moved to the right. This work is essential to understanding the root causes of the violence destabilising not just Palestine and the region but the wider world and ways to bring it to an end.
Gilbert Achcar is Lebanese and is emeritus Professor of Development Studies and International Relations at SOAS, University of London. He is the author of multiple books on the middle east, politics and international relations including having co-authored with Noam Chomsky.
